EXPOSING the Music Industry One Day at a Time

[@MarkMcCray-gg3wx]

I never believed for a second some random rapper from their bedroom with a laptop just blew up like it seems they do not. It’s ridiculous.

[@cmcjsap]

The problem is that no one really know what a actual song or a stream is worth. Back in the day, tapes and cds, etc.. actually was a product that was sold so that validated worth. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@djmarxmadeit]

Went from teaching Chords secrets to Industry secrets love to see it!

[@hollileslie8105]

The way society is going with social media, needing constant validation, and people being fake as honestly horrifying to me. I have a friend who is a producer and he straight up told me that some of the people that come in there come in there, and just record tick-tock’s. I’ve also heard another producer say this. People are in there for a social media, not really to create. They just want the attention. It’s getting weird.

[@prayerworks6598]

WHAT'S WEIRD ABOUT GETTING ATTENTION + GOING VIRAL .........??? THAT'S HOW YOU GET PAID IN THIS DIGITAL WORLD 🌍 WE LIVE IN .........!!! EVERYONE IN BUSINESS NEEDS ATTENTION IT'S CALLED ADVERTISEMENT ........ THAT HOW YOU DRIVE TRAFFIC TO YOUR BUSINESS . . . . WHICH EQUALS MONEY 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵 💵

[@qwammienewsome1357]

That is correct!! However, what about folk who don't care to get paid & never wanted a dime from posting & going viral? It's because they crave/love/desire/need all of the attention they receive!!! Chuck D said it like over a decade ago that "ATTENTION IS THE NEW CURRENCY" and he ain't ever lied!!!

[@Cithara]

this is genuinely one of the most informative videos i’ve ever seen. i was deadass glued to the screen the entire time and genuinely felt like i learned a lot of things i didn’t know, please make this a series man we need more of this

[@cameronmoss154]

SPOT ON My Boi💯 I realized this while in Music Business Management & Engineering College. Major Labels are the banks, the digital distributors are the middle men & the marketing schemes are the phony carnival mirrors! Its severely unstable, deceitful & can rob actual talented musicians of their passion for the art. It's why Rihanna ain't into music no more but business, to clear old advances, label recoupments & free herself up from the industry while she's still young. Michael & Prince knew what they were talking about & were eliminated for going against the Oligarchs!

[@poohchasm]

NEED PART 2! PLZ!!! im trying to start a label because I know too many talented people! I only want my friends to reach their dreams and I want to do it completely differently from the standard practices. Thank you for the exposure.

[@busyworksbeats]

Go for it! Funny enough, starting a record label doesn’t require paperwork so just do it !

[@BigVolcano314]

Tap in with me

[@Iceworld_TV]

I started my own label as well. Keep the dream moving bro

[@poohchasm]

@@Iceworld_TV 🙏🙏🙏

[@poohchasm]

@@BigVolcano314 how?

[@kd0gg77]

I appreciate you for sharing this out, Busy! Ready to see part 2 while you pull back the curtain on these traps called "The Music Industry!"

[@TheMrPhelpsShow]

Great content! Grateful I found my own lane and stayed independent. Been making a living off my music for 3 years now!

[@TheMrPhelpsShow]

@@NickGenovese I built relationships in sync licensing, once I built up my resume, I then built up my own community, branded myself authentically, then diversified my income beyond sync licensing by teaching a production course.

[@abbakaastralboobaby]

These tricks also work in the opposite direction... When the gatekeepers don't want your content to grow or reach a greater audience, they set into motion trickery to keep organic growth at a limit. The whole system needs to be rehauled.

[@busyworksbeats]

Working on a part 2 today 😎 with @mgthefuture

[@SouthParkAB3]

🔥 ✊✊✊🔥 🔥🔥🔥 ✊✊ 🔥 Facts

[@GRINDETHIKSMIXTAPESHOW]

Peace Bro thanks for the info also I want to add on that the record labels operate like the mob , some of the practices that they use is how mobster get money also i was wondering if i can interview u on my show , I speak on business , entertainment and self awareness

[@christinabanks6516]

Fantastic tutorial! Definitely a cautionary tale and should be a mandatory course for those seeking a major label record deal. It's not just all about creating quality art. You use this use this business knowledge to protect yourself and the artistic work that you have created!😮

[@OnlyZips]

This was extremely informative and revealing wasn’t aware of all these practices being used. Makes sense but wow 🤯 thank you for taking the time to put this video together and breaking it down. 🙏

[@earlpipe9713]

Yeah, you aren't going to ever find many that will give a peek behind the curtain like this, in such a sober, non sensationalized manner, with the material motives and means as a focus. It's usually "they're sacrificing their friggin families!" and "best actress's!? That's actually a dude - it's best actor!" type silliness

[@justthetruth247]

One of the realest videos ever! As a DJ/musician producer, athlete and more!

[@aj_introduction]

Please do a part 2. I an aspiring artist and I want to learn the game before I play. Keep grinding mn . You providing real value and gems 💪

[@khanyizzi]

And now they shadow barning and buying out the real talent , we need independent society to unite. Real music can be realized once this toxicity is eliminated

[@juliangarcia-hernandez8850]

Thank you brother for making this video! I hope I always stay independent!

[@No1zShadow]

Very informative! Want to see part 2 asap! Thanks for your time!

[@HoodRoyaltyEntertainment]

I normally don’t comment bro so when I do it’s 💯 You took this information to the next level a lot of people are just regurgitating stuff, but you broke it down. Please do a part 2 when time permits 💪

[@PRODEliHaze]

We definitely need a part two 💯🔥

[@MrTone075]

Keep doing these videos. I knew this would be tough, but I gotta keep moving. Welp, like DMX said, "The Industry."

[@kaptainbambino]

Bro this is going to blow up.. thank you for the breakdown...

[@Janik1994]

Thanks for the video Game. We need more honest people like you in the industry!

[@cajuncrackerranch7990]

Great content man. Looking forward to your part 2. The truth always prevails as most all things are covered and coated with lies and deception. Stay alert! Stay alive! Stay strong! Peace ✌️

[@earlpipe9713]

Definitely, and it takes a true visionary to actually start seeing the illusions as the props they are, and perceiving the systems of reality for what they really are, and how their mechanisms of control are manipulated

[@AceDramaBeats]

I've learned so much from watching your videos! Definitely looking forward to part 2! I've started registering all of my works, retaining ownership, and now I'm looking more into the business end to see how things actually work. This video came at the perfect time!

[@CoollynnHomiebruh]

Dude , i cant believe you still at it. I still use your chord building method, and it took me far. That was years ago. And here you are still working, thanks for putting me on game! MUCH LOVE BRO!

[@joolee_b]

Yes, Part 2 is ESSENTIAL. Thank you.

[@gullydeluxe]

This needs to be like a 10 part course!!!!

[@SouljaStrife]

You the future for all these young producers like me, would appreciate you to keep dropping knowledge OG, you gonna be the building blocks to new forms of business 🙏

[@areyouak]

FREE GAME!!! I been watching your tutorials since I was in high school learned a ton and have been in a lot of bs with being a producer unfortunately. I’d like to come on and speak about the bs going on in the industry!

[@ThatDorkyReviewShow]

This gotta be how ice spice got out there

[@KingMatiCBeats]

This is the stuff I’ve seen with KZbin Producers, so many new channels I’ve see with hundreds of thousands of views.

[@KanuKatalyst]

Definitely looking for a Part II 🙏🏿🎧

[@enrique11121314]

great info. would def watch part 2 or 3 or 4 or 5

[@Lowkeythepenman1]

Great video this is truly valuable information and a cautionary tale for anyone interested in learning more about the music industry keep them coming

[@minimalmaster]

Great video man. SLOPAXO also made a video on this topic called “Dark Truth About Spotify”

[@carlosgil4196]

Way ahead of you brother keep preaching the truth we hear you and support keep going teach the youth people is zombies they need truth so keep speaking facts 💯

[@earlpipe9713]

The music industry is run on ponzi schemes within pyramid schemes within multi level marketing within ponzi schemes within... What's even crazier is that there's so many other 'perceived as legitimate' markets that are also just pyramid/ponzi scheme bullkakke, most people just never realize it because business markets are never referred to as such, nor have their operational techniques discussed, by media sources, and the public has been conditioned to find economic topics instantly boring and off-putting

[@busyworksbeats]

Big faxx 📠

[@turtleanton6539]

😊

[@AfroGalactiKa]

I love it when a teacher happily laments there's so much to teach us. Well teach me! The business side of the industry and my knowledge of it is baseless except for historical accounts and the unbelieveable stories I'm told about the epic and vast preversion and unbridled greed permeats the roots and foundations of the institution. I studied music theory in high school and vocal performance/theory in college. I tought piano and theory when i was in my 20's; i've performed in many amazing situations and Ive been composing since i was 6. Now I want to do something different; something that doesnt include 'selling my soul' to a den of thieves in order for me to get off of the current plateau. Full disclosue: i'm bored and cranky now that i'm older; the soul selling thing may be a fitting option during these dark times. At least it's something I haven't done yet.

[@proxy369]

it's a beautiful thing, the passion he teaches and speaks with.

[@sohrabhenrijamal]

incredible information thank you bro! I haven't seen others go into the pyramid aspect like you have

[@richarddwyermusic]

Fantastic information. I would love to see a Part 2.

[@prodbybigchev]

Damn That Was Very Informative. About To Tune Into Part 2 Right Now

[@TheJyagerShow]

yo game do you remember "Chart Hyping" ? this is the modern version of it. Back in the day, labels would put out physical copies of the music {Vinyls & CD} and send their own staff to go round and purchase all the remaining copies from all the record stores to make it seem like their artists had sold more than they actually did. Just to create the illusion of success.

[@busyworksbeats]

True !

[@FRIDVYNITE]

we honestly apreciate you!

[@derrickharrison-bo4ro]

This was informative. Part two please 🙏🏾

[@Mr.Pxndor]

I'll love to give some insight on my end of the industry

[@yoxngcloud]

Goat, I’ve always known this but learning the correct terms and having it visualised hits different

[@Lndstrke]

Very informative, looking forward to pt 2!

[@og_sonic]

Yeah man thank you for this one! ☝🔥

[@papycrushproduction8701]

Oh definitely waiting for a part 2 of knowledge 🙏🏽

[@filipspiric1910]

Dude, i think you need to take a breather. You put out too much content for people to watch reliably. Don't get me wrong your content is top notch but you pump it out like a maniac lol. Give us some time to catch up man, and I think you deserve to take a little break once in a while.

[@2c_note]

Honestly a part 2 would be amazing

[@phillipcolumbus4909]

This guy is supremely amazing....

[@DrLauraRPalmer]

Wooooow… Jules were dropped! I thoroughly enjoyed this piece, or should I say exposè. You definitely got a new subscriber in me, looking forward to what you got coming!

[@Lamiere]

yo I really feel this, I always wondered why everyone who's had accomplishment so much always trying to sell someone on something.

[@basementbump20]

[@mrutherford1994]

I don't know the demographic of your other viewers but I have to say I love listening to you talk. I can feel the interest and great deal of understanding. . My only wish Is that you wouldn't hold back and let your mind branch off as much as you want. This is is stuff all aspiring people who are entering the industry should know, and you words carry validity.

[@B-Phantom.]

Great video more of this please !

[@thebswitch]

I could feel that something was not adding up ! Now I know why ! Thanks

[@artemusdavis7741]

I really like this. Would appreciate another.

[@therealforeignwolf]

In a podcast, 6ix9ine said "the billboard charts are all fake and paid for. You can literally pay for a spot on the billboards"... Im paraphrasing... See the condition of the music industry as it crumbles slowly, due to dishonest business practices (numbers are all foogazie + most up and coming mainstream artists are "industry plants") . At the end of the day, if you are an artist or producer, you must first consider making music for the "sport" of creativity, as you continue to move forward with your musical journey. Make sure to have fun, and enjoy yourself through the process. Drop a new song every week or two and become consistent with your Craft. It takes avout two years for A&R to reach out to you. Youll have Independent record labels waiting to sign your music, but only after youve proven yourself to be consistent in releasing new music. This is what my OG taught me when I was in my late teens. This blueprint works 100%... I signed my 2nd record last week. In 2019, A&R from UMG (def jam ) contacted me to tell me that my music was dope, and ir was Paris Kirk (PK) who told me to KEEP GOING! Fallow your dream, but do not create unrealistic expectations such as getting a major record deal/ fame/ riches etc. Fallow the blueprint and you wont have to worry about being disappointed in the outcome of your journey. ✌️ Peace Ima have to invest into promotion bots/fake numbers now, in order to keep up with the "facade" of the industry. Smh gotta do what you gotta do 😅

[@emoney6163]

We gonna need pt 2 dawg

[@Primordial_one]

[@hollileslie8105]

Thank you so much for making this video. I am an artist and have a lot of different ideas that I want to create in the future. I am just coming out of a period of needing validation and wanting people to like it on social medias. Now I’m to the point why I’m making it for me and I think that is the best place to be and how to not get taken advantage of by anybody. I can’t imagine how many big artist one of that validation to build her ego and now they barely have creative control because of the greed of big labels in Hollywood elite.
